Hong Kong Yesterday by Fan Ho


Hong Kong Yesterday by Fan Ho

This is the second monography of Fan Ho's work after The Living Theatre but the one that features the oldest photos. It's a stunning collection of work, with the golden Hong Kong morning light (I'm not certain it's morning, but I think it is) grazing Fan Ho's subjects. There honestly isn't an uninteresting shot in this collection, and I know I'll go back to it again and again. Fan Ho was truly a master of light, and the Hong Kong he depicts is no longer, but so compelling nonetheless.
